Introduction
To celebrate the 1900 Paris World Exposition, the Paris Grand Palace, which is 45 meters high and spans 240 meters, was built at the junction of Champs-Élysées and Place de la Concorde. This magnificent museum gives the city of Paris a sense of luxury and grandeur, and it is truly awe-inspiring. The colorful glass paintings and unique halls add a lot to its charm.
The entire Paris Grand Palace consists of three buildings, each with equally grand salons and exhibition halls. In 1964, André Malraux, the Minister of Culture at the time, requested that the vast gallery be planned as part of it, to be used for international exhibitions.
Many famous artists have showcased their works to the public here, including Georges de la Tour, Gustave Courbet, Chardin, Monet, and Nicolas Poussin, among others, gaining great fame. Address 3, avenue du Général Eisenhower, 75008 Paris
